In the next twenty years, we will witness one of the biggest shifts in Church’s educational and charitable activities. When Intima Ecclesiae Natura, is fully implemented, the Church will have to sever its ties with an increasingly hostile, even hedonistic, secular government, and cease accepting government funding for its charities, its educational institutions, and its hospitals. The results will be revolutionary—and liberating.

Very interesting! I didn't know about this (a law promulgated by BXVI in 2012) and I think it's very important. Apparently the bishops of Illinois and Oklahoma have already ceased accepting government funding for Church charities, and the goal is for all of the bishops worldwide to do so (also, not to accept money from entities hostile to the teachings of the Church).

In addition to setting the charities free, it will also mean a revival of religious orders, I suspect, because once again sisters and orders of priests and brothers will be needed to do the work that is no longer being paid for by the government - and also to do genuine Catholic work, not simply function as social workers for the Government.

This also covers schools and colleges, btw.
